Endless sunshine in East Chandler

Boasting year-round sunshine and views of the vast desert landscapes that encompass Phoenix’s East Valley lies the residential enclave of East Chandler. Locals have easy access to small and big-town living, about 26 miles from downtown Phoenix and just minutes away from the charming downtown district of Chandler. The area is also known for its highly-ranked school district, world-class golf courses and endless outdoor recreation. “Chandler has a thriving tech industry. The job market is one of the reasons why people are moving here in mass. It’s also known for its dining and shopping scene and emulates more of a city vibe compared to neighboring Gilbert,” says Amber Perks, Realtor with eXp Realty who has over 6 years of experience in the real estate industry.

Pueblo Revival homes with private pools

East Chandler is filled with peaceful, sidewalk-lined streets brimming with single-family homes, stacked condominium units and attached townhouses. Many homes in the area were built in the late 1990s into the early 2000s and showcase Pueblo Revival architecture with stucco siding and red-tiled roofs that blend into the surrounding arid landscape. The Springs subdivision is one of the highly sought-after waterfront communities in East Chandler, while other subdivisions maintain tidy lots and paved sidewalks. The median sales price for a single-family home is around $515,000, with spacious living spaces well above the national average at 2,677 square feet and usually boasting private swimming pools. Condominium and townhouse prices typically range from the upper $200,000s to the mid $400,000s, while single-family homes can go from the $400,000s to the $900,000s.

Above-average schools in Chandler

The community is served by the Chandler Unified School District, with multiple elementary schools in the area. Students may attend Galveston Elementary, scoring a B-rating on Niche. Galveston hosts many special events for students, from inviting professional illustrators to talk about making children’s books to incubating chicken eggs and then taking care of the chicks. Students then move on to Willis Junior High School and Chandler High School, both receiving A-minus ratings on Niche. Chandler-Gilbert Community College is also in the area.

Desert hikes and afternoon strolls in Pima Park

The City of Chandler has over 60 parks, such as Pima Park. Here, locals can enjoy an afternoon stroll along the walking paths, strike up a game of baseball or soccer on the open fields, or play a friendly game of horseshoe. San Tan Park also offers a walking trail and playground, while pickleball enthusiasts flock to Arbuckle Park on a sunny day. Surrounded by rugged desert terrain, locals can always hit one of the many hiking trails surrounding Chandler. On a rainy day, KTR Chandler offers kids an indoor action sports play area with a skate park, trampolines, BMX courses, and a free run area.

Authentic flavors in Chandler Commons

Residents find daily essentials at the Walmart Neighborhood Market on East Chandler Boulevard, while locals can grab their prescriptions or any other medicinal needs at nearby Walgreens. Chandler Commons is also home to Hawaiian BBQ Nishikawa Ramen for authentic Japanese flavors. To fuel up for the day, The Kind Bean offers a range of specialty coffee drinks and vegan options. Locals can also head to downtown Chandler for a large selection of eateries and shops. Major chains such as Target and The Home Depot are along East Germann Road south of the Santan Freeway.

Community events in Tumbleweed Park

The Ostrich Festival, one of Chandler’s largest annual events, was born from the city’s exciting history around ostrich ranching. Every spring, the grounds of Tumbleweed Park are packed with ostrich-themed activities, carnival rides, live entertainment and more. The city also honors its Old West roots through the Chandler Chuck Wagon Cook-Off, where Tumbleweed Park fills with spectators to watch teams compete and cook utilizing an 1880-style chuck wagon.

Commutes to downtown and nearby Phoenix

Residents have quick access to US Route 87, while Santan Freeway borders the community to the south and acts as a major roadway leading to Interstate 10. “One of the most significant benefits of living in Chandler compared to neighboring localities is the difference in commuting distances to downtown Phoenix,” Perks says. Just past the freeway lies Chandler Municipal Airport, while Chandler Regional Medical Center is close by.
